My dad purchased this truck in 1967 and then passed it on to me. The truck has been only in our family and has just over 108,000 original miles on it. Since 1995, it has had the inside dash, seats and carpet professionally redone. The carpet is now showing some fading. Firestone in Bluffton, SC completely redid the break system within the last year. The C-6 transmission was rebuilt approximately 6 months ago but the roped seal is still slightly leaking. The engine has had little work done on it and the main thing it could use is exhaust manifold gaskets. Also, at this time the oil seal gasket needs changing and has a minor leak due to this. All 4 tires, plus the spare, were purchased from Sears and have less than 5,000 miles on them. The exhaust were re-installed but could be quieter with the manifold gaskets installed. This is a very unique truck and was a limited edition in it's time. With accomodation of a 30 gallon original tank, a 15 gallon reserve tank behind the seat, wide mirrors and an 8 foot bedding make this the Camper Special of it's time. I have since taken off the 30 gallon tank due to gas prices and am using the 15 gallon tank, behind the seat. The paint is in fair condition and the bed has scratches due to yard work and hauling mulch. It was repainted in 1995 and scratches have been made since then.

Motorweek goes retro with '80s hot hatch shootout

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

Motorweek's decades of history on television make it the perfect medium to look back into the automotive past and see how things are different now. It recently added old road test videos to its YouTube channel of the Acura NSX and Toyota Supra, as well as the Ferrari F40. For one of its newest flashback clips, Motorweek has exhumed an affordable five-car challenge of 1986's premiere hot hatches.
By today's standards, this is an eclectic field that features fondly remembered classics like the Volkswagen GTI 16-valve and Acura Integra. However, it also throws in some nearly forgotten contenders like the Dodge Colt Turbo and Ford Escort GT. The angular Toyota Corolla FX16 GT-S rounds out the group.
It's fascinating to watch Motorweek run the quintet through the slalom, down the drag strip and on various roads. What's most striking in this clip is the difference in the definition of a performance car between then and now. With its 16-valve, 1.8-liter four-cylinder, the GTI is the burliest of the contenders with 123 horsepower, but it still takes 8.8 seconds to reach 60 miles per hour. By today's standards, that would make it a plain-jane economy car, and not even a particularly quick one.

Trump to meet with CEOs from Ford, GM, and FCA

Tue, Jan 24 2017

In the wake of his inauguration, President Donald Trump is set to meet with the CEOs of Ford, General Motors, and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles Tuesday morning to discuss jobs, the North American Free Trade Agreement, and potential tax cuts. Trump has been highly critical of American automakers for shipping jobs to Mexico and has threatened to impose heavy import fees on foreign-made vehicles. Trump has threatened to dissolve NAFTA in order to encourage automakers to manufacture cars in the US. Automotive News and Crain's Detroit Business are reporting that the group is set to discuss how to bring more auto industry jobs back to the US. Under NAFTA, many automakers, both foreign and domestic, have moved vehicle production out of the States to Mexico in order to cut costs. White House spokesperson Sean Spicer said Trump is looking forward to the meeting and discussing how to bring jobs back to America. Dismantling NAFTA would be a major blow to automakers. Trump blasted Ford during his campaign for manufacturing in Mexico, but FCA and GM also have factories south of the border. Earlier this month, Ford nixed plans for a $1.6 billion plant in Mexico, instead investing $700 million into an existing facility. At this year's Detroit Auto Show, the unspoken theme was America and American manufacturing. Expect the automakers to fight to keep NAFTA alive.
